Chapter 74 Lost Her Forever
Duotu suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart, and then his realm instantly dropped from True King to the peak of Half King!
"Luoluo!" He had no time to care about the rapidly dissipating strength in his body. He teleported back to the delivery room like crazy. The next second, a handful of purple irises in his hand fell to the ground.
His eyes were red as he stumbled to the bed, hugging a person who had stopped breathing.
The witch doctors were already in chaos.
"It always happens. She was fine right after giving birth..."
"It's postpartum hemorrhage!"
"Your Highness! Your Highness is fine!"
A witch doctor quickly brought the child over, but Duotu didn't even look at him. He hugged Sang Luo, whose body was gradually getting cold, and cried bitterly with his face covered.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Luoluo, I'm sorry..."
He forced this child to come.
He could no longer explain why he wanted this child so badly. Perhaps it was not to consolidate his power, but he wanted to use this child to keep her, but it made him lose her forever.
……
In the Alans Empire, the queen passed away and the whole country was in mourning.
I heard that the queen died unexpectedly after giving birth.
The preliminary investigation showed that it was postpartum hemorrhage.
But the queen's physical indicators were normal before giving birth, so the Beast King ordered a thorough investigation. A few days later, he found clues that someone had bribed the witch doctor who was giving birth and poisoned the queen!
After further investigation, they found poisoned tea in the palace where the queen was... and the source was eventually pointed to Prince Brent's daughter!
Marsali Brent tried to defend herself, but was betrayed by the man next to her.
There was a male white fox beside her, who accused Marshall Brent of secretly operating all this, and even pointed out that she bought the poison at the underground black market in Solo City.
The Beast King personally led people to seal off the black market and found the bill for Marshall Brent's purchase of poison. The truth was revealed: the queen was poisoned to death!
The Beast King was furious and Marshall Brent was beheaded on the spot. Even her identity as a female could not save her life. After Prince Brent learned the news, he forced the emperor to abdicate for his daughter's sake, but was betrayed by his trusted men and fell into a trap. He was surrounded by heavy troops that had been deployed in advance and was beheaded.
At the same time, the Beast King enumerated Prince Brent's numerous crimes, and the list of his collusion with many foreign forces was also made public. The Brent family, which had existed since the founding of the empire and had flourished for nearly a thousand years, was destroyed in one day. Hundreds of millions of assets were all confiscated into the national treasury, and an elite private army was also incorporated into the Beast King's army.
The huge changes in the families of the upper nobles became a topic of conversation among the common people when they were drunk.
In the restaurant, the most discussed topic is the series of reforms carried out by the new Beast King in the short six months since he took office.
He reformed people's livelihood many times, rectified corrupt nobles, suppressed rebels, and ordered a ban on research on genetic females. His methods were swift and decisive, and his abilities far surpassed those of the previous Beast King.
"Boss, check out."
A black-haired boy came to the counter to pay.
Compared to the tall orcs in the restaurant who were over two meters tall, he looked thin and petite, as if he had not yet reached adulthood.
A few people glanced over here, then quickly looked away and continued drinking, playing finger-guessing games, and talking.
Sang Luo listened to the conversation of the orcs and almost forgot to take the change handed over by the boss. She stayed in the palace most of the time and had no idea that Duotu had done so many things in private.
He was not a good son, a good brother, or a good man, but he was undoubtedly an excellent king.
He will probably be a good father in the future.
The little lion will be trained to be excellent if he follows her, so she feels relieved.
After Sang Luo had eaten and drunk his fill, he found an inn to rest. Before falling asleep, he reviewed everything he had done before leaving the Beast King Palace.
Thanks to her second little mermaid and its cheap father, she still had one use of the [Clone] ability left in her body, which allowed her to create a clone for herself and escape. However, the mark of Duotu's cage was still in her body, and the clone would be easily detected.
But after Sang Luo gave birth to her second little mermaid, she also gained two supernatural powers.
【Water】【Unlimited Transfer】
The second talent is very interesting. Theoretically, Sang Luo can transfer the cage mark to his clone.
However, the upper limit of the use of innate abilities depends largely on the level of realm.
In the past, there was a huge gap between her and Duotu in realm, so she couldn't perform it at all. But after she gave birth to the little lion, her realm was raised to the peak of half-king, and she was only half a step away from Duotu. With a 30% success rate, she could barely give it a try.
If she fails, she will die. If she really fails, she will accept her fate.
Fortunately, it succeeded in the end.
It seems that even God wants her to leave Dotu.
But, this alone is not enough.
Duotu is a cautious and cunning person, with the same problem as his father: he is too suspicious.
Everything was fine before she gave birth. Her sudden death would most likely arouse his suspicion. If he conducted a thorough investigation, he would be exposed if he was not sure.
Sang Luo just took advantage of Marshall Brent's malice towards him to provide an extra layer of insurance for his fake death.
The last time Sang Luo went to Marshall Brent's palace to rest, he secretly used his mental power to control the fox orc. After the task was accomplished, he made him stand up and accuse Marshall Brent of secretly poisoning him, leaving a legitimate cause of death. He successfully escaped without any flaws.
Sang Luo stretched, feeling extremely relaxed. After resting for two days, he began to plan his next itinerary.
According to the information she had gathered over such a long period of time, there were only two natural king beasts of the new generation in the Western Continent. Now that she had obtained them all, there was no value in staying any longer. She had to go to other continents to look for the next upgrade target.
Sang Luo once heard Caesar say that the cultivation resources in the Eastern Continent are more abundant, and the orcs there should be stronger and more talented.
But before that, she wanted to find someone.
The only man she owed something to was him.
Once she leaves, she will never return to the Western Continent. Before she leaves, she wants to see how he is doing. He has given her so many beast crystals, and she should respond... Sang Luo has thought of many reasons to see him, but they are all a little pale. She just wants to see him again.
Since his real identity was no longer useful in the Alans Empire, Sang Luo randomly found an inconspicuous passerby on the street, controlled him with his mental power and took some blood, changed his appearance, and then used the name of Glenn Tuya to disguise himself as a school staff member who was doing a home visit. He went to Lan Ruo's home address recorded in the school files.
After arriving, I unexpectedly learned that Lan Cang had already left the Western Continent and went to the Northern Continent.
Sang Luo had never been to the Northern Continent, but had heard of the name of the Northern Continent on the world map and in the gossip of some orcs.
The northern continent is bitterly cold, with few orcs living there, but amazing talents appear from time to time.
She planned to travel to the northern continent first.
